**Official Iowa vs. Iowa State Football Thread - 3:30pm - ABC**

[Soda Popinski]

I hope the Iowa Hawkeyes have all of the fun.

Iowa State has only played one other top-10 v top-10 game. They lost 49-3 at No. 2 Oklahoma in 2002.

This is the biggest home game they've ever played, and it isn't particularly close.

I would rank Campbell’s home debut slightly ahead of it

Iowa 24

I hope we break one off in them.

Saturday has all the opportunity for an all-time Iowa football day. Iowa could vault itself, legitimately, deep into the top-10, while ending the promise of Iowa State's first ever season with real promise, and ALSO at the precise moment Iowa State's conference is semi-permanently setting itself up as an also-ran.

We're talking an all-time, elite level of despair for them. Buckner-through-the-legs despair.

I hate this. While it may be win and crush their souls….a loss would result in more chest thumping and crowing than we’ve ever seen. Which would REALLY be saying something. CMC would of officially passed Ferentz, it would officially be a cyclone state…and they’d all be dumbass Jamie’s claiming they are now the bear.

Seize the day!!

Starting at 1:14 got a laugh from me.

They will be unbearable, no doubt, but the cost of a loss here to Iowa is reasonably low. A loss isn't embarrassing, for the first time in history, and doesn't take off the table anything we thought was reasonable for the season ten days ago.

But they will be miserable.

 

[Stu Beagle]

This is actually the lowest stakes CyHawk game in years

 

[BluesHawk]

@newsbreaker is really seeing the ball well this afternoon.

 

[Jim]

Wanted 1-1 to start the season, with preference to beating Indiana, because not a dumbfuck Iowa State fan.

Now…fuck them. 2-0.

24- The Hawkeye State
17- Sugar Cube U

 

[eclone]

Iowa State - 17
Iowa - 13

Not sure the comparison is appropriate as Buckner was still really good after that boner of a play.

 

[Mo T]

Actually, he was pretty average, at best, after 1986. But, age had something to do with that

 

[SuperHans]

31-20 Hawks

So still > Iowa state

True. Always.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

I can't get over how unbelievably tiny Shudak is

 

[Stu Beagle]

Gonna bet the under. Hopefully Brian can get the run game going as I don’t have confidence in Petras on the road.

The run game was as awful as Petras.

 

[StinkyMcFadden]

Iowa State - 17
Iowa - 13

This is pretty close to what I think, only Iowa has 9.

 

[JD720]

Adam Zucker really does his homework.

 

[BBK]

Steve Fatterson of the QCTimes has a Top 25 vote?

Is Paula Sands in the BCS selection committee?

 

[WCFHawkeye]

 

[WCFHawkeye]

Adam Zucker really does his homework.

In addition to Iowa being 4th, he has Iowa State 5 spots lower than the next closest person.

Oof. Who could he possibly confused them for, or is he really that uninformed? Auburn?

Arizona might be the worst P5 team this year.

She may have meant Arizona State.

UNI took #7 Iowa State to the final play of the game. FCS media was so impressed, they stayed ranked 21st. The coaches were more impressed, as they moved UNI from 16 to 15.

Nearly beat a top-10 ranked Iowa State on the road, and the collective assessment of UNI is that they’re probably mediocre.

 

[newsbreaker]

Fuckin’ RVTV is awful.

Put AZ on a drum set back there and you’re officially gayer than The Village People.

This shit is embarrassing.

combines, corn, Busch Light, and country music! Heehaw that's Iowa!

There is nothing to “love” about that shit. Fucking dorks.

 

[JD720]

So what'd you spend your subsidy check on?

Busch Light wrap for the combine.

WTF is RVTV?

I would guess Arizona State as well, but that is bit a mistake one should make if they are paying attention at all.

 

[Jim]

Less points scored than UNI.

 

[newsbreaker]

WTF is RVTV?

Five TV guys plus the "Iowa Nice" guy driving from town to town, between Des Moines and Ames. Each town throws a little one-night festival, and tells the big city TV guys how funny they are. It constitutes 30% of each night's newscast.

Seems more likely whoever compiled that chart just accidentally used the wrong logo there.

Arizona received 5 votes. The image is correct.

Fuckin’ RVTV is awful.

The Southernification of Iowa is nearly complete.

I watched a couple of videos. I see a lot of overweight white people just livin' the good 'ol rural lifestyle.

It's good for them to get out of the house and get some exercise.

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

WTF is RVTV?

Nailed it.

 

[Greg Obrecht]

Thank Gawd they didn’t come through here this year. It’s an embarrassing display of everything terrible this state has to offer.

The important thing is that the kernel poll has ISU winning in both Polk City and Cambridge.
